100 Great Films, 100 Good Films, and 100 for Which I Should Be Shot

Mike Medavoy is a Hollywood rarity: a studio executive who, though never far from controversy, remained loved and respected through four decades of moviemaking. He helped bring to the screen some of the most acclaimed Oscarwinning films of our time, including Apocalypse Now, One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest, Amadeus, The Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia, and Sleepless in Seattle.Of course, there are the boxoffice disasters, which also have a place in his fascinating memoir, a pullnopunches account of financial and political maneuvering, of creativity stymied, and of working with the industrys brightest star power.An eyewitness to Hollywood history in the making, Medavoy gives a powerful and poignant view of the past and future of a world he knows intimately.
